Matthew 7:10 Context
8For euery one that asketh, receiueth: and he that seeketh, findeth: and to him that knocketh, it shalbe opened. 9Or what man is there of you, whom if his sonne aske bread, will hee giue him a stone? 10Or if he aske a fish, will hee giue him a serpent? 11If ye then being euill, know how to giue good giftes vnto your children, how much more shall your Father which is in heauen, giue good things to them that aske him? 12Therefore all things whatsoeuer ye would that men should doe to you, doe ye euen so to them: for this is the Law and the Prophets.
